histologist

a medical scientist who specializes in the study of the structure of organ tissues, including the composition of cells and their organization into various body tissues. See also histology.

However, those laboratories in which 1 or more histologists reportedly performed gross specimen examination showed a trend toward less productivity (6163 blocks per FTE per year) than that of laboratories in which this examination was not performed (6324 blocks per FTE per year).

A Spanish histologist, Santiago Ramon y Cajal (1852-1934), improved on Golgi's stain, and by 1889 had worked out the cellular structure of the brain and spinal cord in detail, firmly establishing the neuron theory.

While you don't need to be able to perform a chest x-ray, cut tissue like a histologist, or perform a manual differential on bone marrow, you should be able to provide employees with the tools they need to perform their jobs effectively.

Morphologists (anatomists, histologists, cell biologists, electron microscopists, pathologists and others) have for some time been using and developing quantitative approaches that have made it possible to estimate the regular composition of various organs and tissues, as well as to verify how external agents or diseases can modify the structure.
